4. in case of a tie 3 shot at 30" bull at 1000yards. first one to hit it wins. electricity available. maybe water hook ups for RV no sewer.
5 in case of a tie again, we will move to my golf game, rules are as follows. shooter a hits a golf ball in bounds. shooter b must kill gaolf ball. where it lands for a point. this is off the bench. rounds will carry on until we havea winner. No sight adjustments are allowed once shoot begins.

Tgully, I used to hang out, sometimes, with a group of old men, by "old", I mean I am the child at 59 -- the senior guy is 87. All of us are magnum shooters and not little magnums either. The rule is, when they get together, the smallest rifle they allow is a .375 H & H but virtually all of them shoot .416s and .458s. They toss money in a hat and the best group of the day takes the dough. These guys are all old African hunters and a winning five shot group is invariably less than 1/2." They don't allow Lead Sleds or even PAST recoil shields ["those are for kids and old ladies"] so you've gotta' do some serious shooting and take a beating while you do it. These guys, -- there's usually 6 to 10 of them -- have more fun than any group of shooters I've ever seen.

Clayt,
I live in New York State and might be up for your challenge. I've been known to eat a sixpack of lobsters.

That sounds like more of a challenge. Who can eat the most lobster, steamers, and drink the most beer? ------------------

paul,$50.00 It may be enough but I doubt it. There are some on this board who can consume $50.00 worth of food and that is just enough to stir up an appetite. We are talking about piles of food here.

Well, I did the MapQuest thing and I am 5 hours 35 minutes away. At total of 302.31 miles. I'm sure it would be a good time.
